Instructions

To Start
1

a) Remove the puff pastry from your fridge and allow to come up to room temperature.

b) Preheat your oven to 220°C/200°C fan/gas mark 7.

Prep the Pastry
2

a) Cut the pastry into 6 equal squares. Place 2 squares side-by-side on another lined baking tray and poke holes in them using a fork.

b) Leaving a 2cm border, cut the centre from the remaining 4 squares. These are your border pieces. TIP: Save the centre pieces for another recipe.

Voila! Vol-au-Vents!
3

a) Brush a little water onto each border piece, then stack 2 border pieces on top of each pastry square on the lined baking tray, wet-side down, ensuring the edges and corners of each piece line up. These are your vol-au-vents!

b) Place the vol-au-vents onto the middle shelf of your oven until puffed and golden, 20-25 mins. Turn halfway through cooking.

Fry the Mushrooms
4

a) Meanwhile, heat a drizzle of oil in a large frying pan on high heat. Once hot, add the sliced mushrooms to the pan.

b) Season with salt and pepper and fry, stirring occasionally, until browned, 5-6 mins.

c) In the meantime, peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press). Finely chop the chives (use scissors if easier).

d) Once the mushrooms have browned, add the garlic to the pan and cook for 1 min more. 

Up the Flavour
5

a) Stir the water for the sauce (see pantry for amount) and wild mushroom paste into the mushroom pan. TIP: If your wild mushroom paste has hardened, put the sachet in a bowl of hot water for 1 min to loosen.

b) Bring to the boil, then lower the heat and simmer until thickened, 3-4 mins. 

c) Once thickened, stir in the creme fraiche and hard Italian style cheese. Simmer for 1 min.

d) Stir through the truffle zest (add less if you prefer a milder truffle taste) and three quarters of the chives.

Assemble and Serve
6

a) Once the vol-au-vents are baked, push down the centre with the back of a spoon, then allow them to cool slightly, 5 mins.

b) Place on your serving platter, then divide the truffle mushroom mixture evenly between the vol-au-vents.

c) Sprinkle over the remaining chives to finish.

Enjoy!
